Are you on “vacation” this week, yet still checking e-mail and browsing the Web?

If so, that’s lucky for us–but survey results released on Monday by Gartner, Inc. suggest that business users have become addicted to e-mail.

“The connected vacationer is always on the alert for business interruptions. For better or for worse, 42 percent of us go online to look for business e-mails during vacation,” said Maurene Caplan Grey, a senior research analyst with Gartner.

Even on ordinary weekends, 23 percent of survey respondents felt compelled to check their business e-mail.
